What sequence correctly represents the chain of communication from the national level to chapter members?

• A. National Executive Board > Regional Directors >State Directors >Chapter Basilei > Chapter Members
• B. Chapter Basileus > Undergrad Advisor > State Director > Regional Director > International Grand Basileus > National Executive Board
• C. Chapter Members > Chapter Basilei > State Directors > Regional Directors > National Executive Board
• D. Regional Directors > State Directors > Chapter Basilei > Chapter Members > National Executive Board

Answer: (A)

Communication flows from the top down in Zeta Phi Beta. The National Executive Board provides policy and direction; Regional Directors oversee multiple states; State Directors coordinate chapters within a state; Chapter Basilei lead their chapters; Chapter Members are the members of the chapter. Thus the chain is National Executive Board → Regional Directors → State Directors → Chapter Basilei → Chapter Members. Other sequences misplace roles or reverse the direction of flow, which would not reflect how instructions and policies move through the organization.
